<h3>Answer: B. x = 6</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Since the vertical lines are parallel, this means the alternate exterior angles shown are congruent.

Set them equal to each other and solve for x.

15(x+2) = 120

15x+30 = 120

15x = 120-30

15x = 90

x = 90/15

x = 6

Or we could have the steps like this

15(x+2) = 120

x+2 = 120/15

x+2 = 8

x = 8-2

x = 6

Sam borrows $5700 at 4.5% simple interest for 3 years. Find the interest

kherson [118]

Answer:

The interest is

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest is given by

$I = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}$

where

P is the principal

R is the rate

T is the time given

From the question

The principal / P = $ 5700

The rate / R = 4.5%

The time given / T = 3 years

So the interest is

$I = \frac{5700 \times 4.5 \times 3}{100}$

$I = \frac{76950}{100}$

We have the final answer as

I = $ 769.50

Let

The total books are = 13x ; where x is any positive number

As given,

The ratio of hardback books to total books is 5 to 13.

⇒Hardback books = $\frac{5}{13}$ × Total books

⇒Hardback books = $\frac{5}{13}$ × 13x = 5x

So, Paperback books = Total books - Hardback books

= 13x - 5x

= 8x

⇒Total Paperback books = 8x
